INGREDIENTS
6 oz Sea Scallops
1 cup Cauliflower Florets
1 tbsp Olive Oil (for searing)
1 tbsp Olive Oil (for cauliflower rice)
1 large Egg White
1 clove Garlic
1 tbsp Lemon Juice
2 tbsp Fresh Parsley, chopped
1 tbsp Fresh Basil, chopped
Salt & Pepper to taste
PREPARATION
Pat the scallops dry with a paper towel and season lightly with salt and pepper.
Heat 1 tablespoon of olive oil in a non-stick skillet over medium-high heat. Once shimmering, add the scallops and sear for 2-3 minutes on each side until golden and just cooked through. Remove the scallops and keep warm.
In the same skillet, add the minced garlic and sauté until fragrant, about 30 seconds. Then add the cauliflower florets, cooking for 3-4 minutes until they start to soften.
Stir in the egg white to help bind the cauliflower slightly and cook for an additional minute.
Mix in the lemon juice, fresh parsley, and basil, then drizzle the remaining 1 tablespoon of olive oil over the cauliflower. Season with salt and pepper and stir well to combine.
Plate the herb cauliflower rice as a base and top with the seared scallops. Garnish with extra herbs if desired and serve immediately.
